Wotha! Check out the low forming up in the Bight Sun nite! Very unusual.
sat - you'll have a fun sail at Kent's reserve (try launching at White Pole on high tide) but 3' swell might be struggling to make it in there!
If the forecast holds, Goolwa looks good for starboard tack waves in 2' 23knot E'ly Sunday - I can do an early session but have to be back in town at midday.

Anything could happen. Will wait and see.
Weirdst weather pattern ive ever seen in summer.
There is another option near Cape Jervis but ive never sailed or surfed it and dont know weather it would work on wind swell or weather it needs a massive groundswell.
I would have thought this pattern is quite normal Bondy. Cyclones up north always seem to shake up our weather here, starting with heat waves and then rain periods.

You are correct in that Jay, but not a low depression being pushed off the land down below us. Have a look at the charts.
So why is hookipa a starboard tack wave and diamond head a port tack wave? Because in wave sailing James it's the way you ride the wave and not the way you head out. I always refer to the saying "no port left" port being the left hand side of a boat when facing the bow.
Wavesailing tack = Port or Starboard according to the tack we are jumping on the way out. That would be why Hookipa is a starboard tack and then port with the Kona winds.
